What is Retargeting?

At its most basic, retargeting is a type of advertising that involves serving those who’ve already visited or interacted with a given page or website with an ad that encourages conversion. 

The primary intention of retargeting is to retain engagement with those expressing interest or reconnect with those who may have previously shown interest in your product or service.  So to put it simply, you spend hundreds or thousands for a digital campaign to drive traffic to your site. Retargeting basically taps your client on the shoulder and says “Don’t forget about us”.

Whether for brand awareness, social engagement, or customer retention, retargeting campaigns are an all but necessary implement into one’s digital marketing efforts, not merely due to the fact that without any retargeting, 97% of visitors are unlikely to return.

In short, the question shouldn’t be “why retargeting?” but rather “why not retargeting?”… Not only does retargeting allow you to capture leads while they’re still hot, but such audiences convert at much higher rates than those that are cold and unqualified. 

Taking the guesswork out of your marketing efforts, targeting those who’ve shown an interest in your product or service will only increase conversion rates and reduce the headaches along the way.  You have spent money to get that targeted traffic, now, we can serve ads to just those people that had interns from the beginning.

How Retargeting Works

No matter how you define retargeting, it functions much the same. Put simply, there are two primary types of retargeting campaign strategies; pixel-based strategies and list-based strategies. 

As the most common type of retargeting, pixel-based retargeting involves displaying content to an anonymous visitor who’s visited your website previously. The reason this type of campaign is the most common is because of its immediacy of retargeting capabilities. 

On the contrary, list-based retargeting campaigns are arguably as effective, utilizing existing contact information to target a volume of hot leads. Whether it’s via a list of email addresses, geographical locations, or otherwise, list-based retargeting allows you to employ precision remarketing to a highly customized audience. 

Whichever strategy you choose and for what reasons, retargeting works to increase awareness, retention rates, and conversions, ultimately allowing you to exploit, in a non-manipulative way, those who show interest in your offerings because, without it, you’re missing out on a massive pool of potential consumers.

Finally, as for where to launch your retargeting efforts, Google and Facebook are the most likely and effective options. For starters, Google controls nearly 93% of the digital world’s market share, known by most as the advertising hotspot of the internet. Disregarding search engines, Facebook just so happens to be the advertising hotspot of social media, providing several tools and ad strategies to be employed, retargeting and otherwise.
